Forklift Alternators

Forklift Alternators - A device utilized so as to change mechanical energy into electric energy is actually referred to as an alternator. It could carry out this function in the form of an electric current. An AC electric generator can in essence be termed an alternator. Nonetheless, the word is usually used to refer to a rotating, small device powered by internal combustion engines. Alternators which are placed in power stations and are powered by steam turbines are called turbo-alternators. Most of these machines make use of a rotating magnetic field but every so often linear alternators are likewise used.

A current is induced in the conductor if the magnetic field surrounding the conductor changes. Generally the rotor, a rotating magnet, spins within a set of stationary conductors wound in coils. The coils are situated on an iron core called the stator. When the field cuts across the conductors, an induced electromagnetic field otherwise called EMF is produced as the mechanical input causes the rotor to revolve. This rotating magnetic field generates an AC voltage in the stator windings. Normally, there are 3 sets of stator windings. These physically offset so that the rotating magnetic field induces 3 phase currents, displaced by one-third of a period with respect to each other.

"Brushless" alternators - these utilize slip rings and brushes together with a rotor winding or a permanent magnet so as to produce a magnetic field of current. Brushlees AC generators are usually located in bigger machines like for example industrial sized lifting equipment. A rotor magnetic field could be generated by a stationary field winding with moving poles in the rotor. Automotive alternators often use a rotor winding that allows control of the voltage generated by the alternator. This is done by varying the current in the rotor field winding. Permanent magnet devices avoid the loss due to the magnetizing current inside the rotor. These devices are limited in size because of the price of the magnet material. The terminal voltage varies with the speed of the generator as the permanent magnet field is constant.
